Help with Sebrenica song..

July 12, 2005 4:56 AM

Anyone watched the Sebrenica commemoration in Bosnia yesterday? I'd love to find a CD/mp3 of the moving song the little girl in red was singing and the chorus in white. I don't speak the language, and I'm having a lot of trouble finding the /name/ of the song, let alone a recording of it.. Please help!

Maybe Srebrenicki inferno? (Srebrenica Inferno)? The piece was written by Ðelo Jusic and was performed during the ceremony. It's mentioned here by the BBC. (Just click to the third photo)

I'm not sure where you could find it. I would try asking in a classical music store -- I imagine that it will be released soon.

Yes, it's "Srebrenicki Inferno", thank you very much!
If anyone comes across the recording / mp3, I'd be grateful. :)

I -think- have access to a recording of the ceremony. I'll be able to check tomorrow. If so, I'll email you to let you know, and make an MP3 and email it to you on Thursday.

Let's hope the RIAA isn't watching :)

I've got your email address from your profile.
